Do you have to use action research for your thesis or dissertation but you don’t know what that is? Want to know what an action research question is or how to recognize a weak one? Then you’ve come to the right place! But before we find out how to recognize a weak action question, let’s see what action research is?
Action research is a problem that allows practical inquiry or implementation to reach a conclusion of the problem. It can also be called an experiment in design where the purpose is to implement an action to study its consequences.
In simple words, action research can be called ‘learning by doing.
The importance of the research question composed well cannot be emphasized enough. It is very important to formulate a good action study question as it gives a central focus to your entire research paper and tells you what action you must take for the solution of the problem. To explain it more elaborately, the research process is like taking a hike on an unknown path. You need to make a road map so that you don’t get lost on the way. A good action question is like that road map.
So how can you recognize a weak action study question from a good one?
For example
If a school holds quarterly student events and wants to study parental participation in the events then a weak action statement can be:
This is a weak action question as it does not allow any change in experimental design to study the proposed question. This might be a good example of other research types but not for experimental research.
For example
Will increasing student assignments encourage more study hours resulting in higher grades?
This is an incorrect question. A better question can be:
In a nutshell, the main goal of action research is continuous learning through progressive problem-solving study where the researcher tries to get a deeper understanding of issues through practice on a theoretical problem. Because the research question is the focal point of the study, therefore it is very important to develop it with effectiveness.
